WCFL Tribute on XM channel 6

P

I am really enjoying the WCFL tribute. I enjoyed the tributes that they have done since I started getting XM radio and I have been waiting for them to do a Chicago tribute.
 
I enjoyed it too....for the first hour or so. But it seemed the only original airchecks they had were a pretty bland Clark Weber morning show, and some Ron Britain (but NOT the Subterranean Circus!)
Where was Barney Pip? Jim Runyan? In light of his sad passing this week, it would have been nice to hear Jim Stagg. They had a terrific News Dept in those first few years...only heard one, brief newscast. And no Chickenman!

Best part was all those great jingles......that original package from c. 1966-68 is still, for my money, the best damn jingle package ever.
 
Note to "motor mouth:"

If you're gonna pretend, at least learn something about the station. There was no "downtown Marina City." Changed to 80s IT after the second time you pulled that boner.
 
DARN...I missed this. Does anyone know if it will be repeated ?
If anyone here made a recording of it, I would love a copy. I wonder if I am on any of the airchecks. I used to win a lot of the call-in contests back in those days.
